Name: Heather Schott

Age: 35

Occupation: Stay at home Mother of two. My 11 yr old is home schooled and I have a 3 1/2 year old that I chase around all day.

How often do you exercise? Five times a week.

What type of exercise do you do? I run, lift weights, and occasionally do yoga.

What gets you to workout, even when you're feeling lazy? I have downloaded photos of people's body parts I covet. I look at those when I need a swift kick in the pants, or I visit a bodybuilding website to get motivated.

What's on your MP3 player? Everything from Mercy Me to Linkin Park

Favorite healthy food? I eat salad with very little dressing, and sometimes no dressing almost every single day for lunch.

Favorite not-so-healthy food? Pizza!

Greatest fitness accomplishment? I am the most fit I've ever been now than in my entire life. In the last two years, my husband and I have run in several small races.

Best fitness advice? Just do it. Excuses will keep you right where you are. If you want to change, then get off the pot and make it happen. Yep, I beat that kid in this race!
